The most popular French play ever produced, this rich and romantic tale is brought to life by an intimate cast of actor/musicians in a fast-paced and interactive adaptation. Gabriel Barre is an internationally acclaimed director (Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle nominations for Andrew Lippa’s The Wild Party) and performer (Tony Nomination for Starmites), who made his Broadway directing debut this season with the new musical, Amazing Grace.

In Burning, Cyrano has become Cy, a woman kicked out of the Army for being gay, who, like Cyrano, suffers from insecurity that prevents her from pursuing love. The play is not only a fresh take on the Cyrano story, it tackles critical contemporary issues of gender inequality, discrimination based on sexual orientation, and military abuse. Ginger’s work has been honored with the John Gassner Memorial Playwriting Award and an IRNE nomination for Best New Play.
